This coming summer Gracie's Gowns will be hosting a charity raffle. The raffle items will consist of our Freckles made in fabrics that represent other charities.

The ticket proceeds will be split between Gracie's Gowns and the charity each Freckle represents. There are 15 charities we will be representing through this raffle this coming year.

For example - when you purchase your ticket(s), you specify which charity's bucket you want it to be put in towards winning that specific Freckle. The cost of the ticket ($2.00) will be split 50/50 with that charity, we will keep $1.00 the charity will get the other.

So at the end of the raffle, we will be making donations to the charities based on the number of tickets that were put in that charities bucket.

For those who haven't ventured our website a lot or are new to Gracie's Gowns. This is what our Freckles look like in general and how they will look for this raffle.We may embroider the charity's name across the stomach, like we do with the names of children, but that is still up in discussion right now.

I will have more details to come once we are closer to event time, but I wanted to share the fabrics and charities while I was cleaning and organizing the sewing area in my kitchen.

We are always open to suggestions of charities for the upcoming years! So if you have one that you'd like to see made into a Freckles, please let us know. This will be something I look forward to doing every summer and a way Gracie's Gowns can give back to the organizations that also help the families that we have made hospital gowns for.
